Had a quiet little day, kind of sad and dreary and rainy and cold, a great time for reading, and a little coding, and going to see the Lego Movie (wasn't bad, but wasn't quite as good as I'd hoped), and lots of Olympic watching.

Hmmm... the Olympic opening ceremonies referred to Russian Communism as a "great experiment". Was it the worst idea in the world? I think there were worse ones, but we could say it definitively proved that Socialism does not lead to better lives for the people living under it.
